Experience Level: Expert
Advanced Admin Console allows you to extend access to various parts of your home server’s administration controls from within the WHS Console, including Control Panel Printers and Faxes, Administrative Tools, Start Menu, My Computer, My Network Places, Recycle Bin and Network Connections. You can also launch a desktop session.
At the extreme right of the Console Toolbar is a drop down menu with access to Command Prompt, Windows PowerShell, Task Manager, Registry Editor and Customize.
